ingredients
2 tablespoons butter | 1 small onion, chopped | 10 g fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped | 1.25 kg small butternut squash, prepared and cut into
2 cm cubes | 0,5 liter coconut milk | 0,5 liter cream | Coarse salt and ground pepper
sour cream, (optional) | roasted pumpkin seeds
prepArAtion
pumpkin is one of the most popular vegetables of the winter season since it can be
served in many ways such as roasted, braised or in a soup. pumpkin combines very
well with vegetables and fruits what are grown in other climatic zones. Coconut is a
great match; its sweet flavor and silky texture compliments the taste of the pumpkin.
melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion until fragrant, about 2
minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and squash; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 6 to 8
minutes. stir in 4 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. simmer until squash is
tender, 20 minutes.
pure soup in two batches. When blending hot foods, allow the heat to escape to
prevent splattering. remove the cap from the hole of the blender's lid, and cover with
a dish towel. stir in cream, coconut milk and 1 and a half teaspoons salt. serve hot,
with sour cream and pumpkin seeds if desired.
